Trisha,
LOL, the Outback is a big place. The Fast Forward in
the first half of the show, I forgot to specify since
it was a two hour one, was the largest sitting Buddha.
It is at the top of the Po Lin Monestary, Lantau
Island, Hong Kong. I climbed the 265 steps and as I
was huffing and puffing, I knew I had a good spot for
a VC. The URL is
http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.asp?ID=9499
and the waypoint is GC251B. An fan of Kung Fu movies
will probably recognize the compound since many have
been filmed here.
